5 Things Leadership Does — Sharing Vision

Friday, March 15th, 2013

Note: This post is the first in a five-part series look­ing at 5 things lead­er­ship does.

Over the next few weeks, I will dive deeper into each of the five here in my blog. I will start each post off with a ques­tion. If you answer yes, then there is really no need for you to read any fur­ther. But if you respond with a no, then the post should help.

Too many peo­ple have set­tled in their careers. They are spend­ing the major­ity of their hours work­ing for orga­ni­za­tions that they just don’t align with.

This does not mean that the com­pany or the prod­uct is inher­ently bad, it just means that they don’t really believe in the value they offer.

This is prob­lem­atic for two reasons.
